Interfaith Worker Justice

Woe to the one who builds a palace by unrighteousness, upper rooms by injustice, making workers toil for nothing, not paying them for their labor. Jeremiah 2:13

MESSAGE FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

Throughout 2010, Interfaith Worker Justice and its network of interfaith groups and workers centers reiterated the prophetic messages of Jeremiah. Those who employ people should treat workers fairly. Those who work deserve to be paid for all their work. Across the nation Interfaith Worker Justice combined its prophetic message with practical actions to make a real difference for workers. In 2010, IWJ helped convene and launch Faith Advocates for Jobs, a new national effort to engage congregations in supporting unemployed workers and lift up a faith voice on jobs. IWJ continued its groundbreaking national and local work on wage theft that has resulted in new wage theft ordinances, taskforces and campaigns. And when workers wanted to organize, IWJ supported their right to organize without fear and harassment. The year was a tough one for workers, but Interfaith Worker Justice remained grounded in the prophetic word and continued engaging people of faith in sensible campaigns to bring about a more just society. Support for the work came from many foundations, denominations, unions, congregations and individuals like you thank you! Please read on to see the important work that you helped make possible.

What we would like to do is change the world make it a little simpler for people to feed, clothe, and shelter themselves as God intended for them to do. And, by fighting for better conditions, by crying out unceasingly for the rights of the workers, of the poor, of the destitutewe can, to a certain extent, change the world.
Dorothy Day, Catholic Social Activist

POWER IN SOLIDARITY
A History of Bringing People Together

hroughout history, people of faith have made significant contributions to the economic justice movement from the key role that Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. played in the Sanitation Workers strike and the Poor Peoples Campaign to the work of the California Migrant Ministry in the Farm Worker Movement with Cesar Chavez. Interfaith Worker Justice believes that faith is indeed an intrinsic part of the struggle for economic equity, and over the last 15 years, IWJ has led efforts to further engage the religious community in issues of workplace justice. With the financial support and activism of people like you, IWJ has built a growing grassroots network of workers centers and interfaith groups around the country. We trained hundreds of students, seminarians and future religious leaders through strong internship programs and produced educational resources on worker justice issues tailored for and by different communities of faith. In 2010 IWJ once again stepped up and mobilized people of faith around issues of wage theft, jobs, immigration and the right to organize. It was an especially critical time for our work. The need for a strong prophetic and strategic religious voice and grassroots structures for protecting workers were extremely critical as working families continued to be battered by a harsh economy. This report highlights some of our and our affiliates victories, and how your support helped make all of that possible. At the end of the day, we can clearly say: We are all in this together!

ADVOCATING POLICY CHANGES TOGETHER

IWJ has pursued a four part national strategy: Stigmatize wage theft and educate the broader community, policy practitioners, unions, religious communities, low wage workers, and students about the nature of the wage theft epidemic, through media, publications, online resources, and national days of action. Support grassroots wage recovery campaigns by local worker advocacy groups, including direct action campaigns, filing complaints with government agencies, and private litigation. Develop innovative wage theft prevention partnerships between community-based worker advocacy groups and the U.S. Department of Labor and state DOLs. Provide assistance and leadership for local, state and federal legislative campaigns to deter wage theft and improve enforcement. The movement to create and experiment with new approaches to wage enforcement is growing by leaps and bounds at the state and local levels. And in 2010, IWJ affiliate groups played instrumental roles in making things happen in Miami Dade County, New York, Fayetteville and Grand Rapids. (Visit www. wagetheft.org for information on state and local victories)

n 2010, Interfaith Worker Justice expanded efforts to advocate policy changes that impact the lives of workers, especially those in low-wage jobs. In October, IWJ opened a new office in Washington, DC, headed up by two renowned veterans of religion and justice work Rev. Paul Sherry and Thom Shellabarger. With a stronger DC presence, IWJ strengthens its role bringing together people of faith to help American workers. IWJ has two priority campaigns, Wage Theft and Jobs, which both include efforts to achieve national legislation. Jobs In December 2010, IWJ launched Faith Advocates for Jobs as a means to engage the religious community in supporting unemployed workers and advocating public investment in jobs. The campaign engages hundreds of religious congregations to support unemployed workers, advocate for good jobs, and educate and mobilize faith communities to provide a religious voice on the growing issue of unemployment. Wage Theft IWJ continues to provide leadership and direction for a national campaign on wage theft. In 2010, more than 35 groups around the country participated in IWJs Wage Theft Day of Action, which helped broaden the general publics understanding of this multi-billion-dollar crime against workers.

FORGING PARTNERSHIPS & GROWING THE NETWORK

espite the challenges on both the economic and political fronts, Interfaith Worker Justice continued to grow and strengthen its network of workers centers and interfaith groups. In 2010, conducted three national and four regional trainings and provided on-site technical assistance to more than 60 percent of its affiliates. For the first time in 2010, IWJ offered the annual Organizing for Worker Justice training in both English and Spanish, making the program accessible to a broader range of network members. By the end of year, the IWJ Network grew its membership to 24 workers centers and 48 interfaith groups in different parts of the country. (A complete listing is available at www.iwj.org).

Interfaith Worker Justice

Once social change begins, it cannot be reversed. You cannot uneducate the person who has learned to read. You cannot humiliate the person who feels pride. You cannot oppress the people who are not afraid anymore. We have seen the future, and the future is ours. Cesar Chavez

2010 Annual Report

My work with IWJ this summer really impressed upon me a core dynamic of our economy: that opportunity favors those strong enough to secure its blessings. I have more or less taken this for granted, but getting to taste and see it first-hand was profoundly informative. Paul Drake, Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary

INVESTING IN THE NEXT GENERATION OF LEADERS

nterfaith Worker Justice has a long history of engaging students and young religious leaders through internship and campus programs. In 2010, 19 undergraduate and seminary students participated in IWJs summer internship program. The program placed students at local unions, interfaith committees or workers centers across the country, where they gained hands-on experience in reaching out to the religious community on issues impacting workers and their families. For several years, IWJs internship programs have empowered students and motivated them to pursue a vocational calling towards social justice. In 2010, IWJ expanded efforts to reach out to more students and campuses by promoting the Alternative Break Immersion manual that provides faculty, campus staff and students the tools to set up programs that provide an intensive introduction to worker justice issues with a focus on reflection and action. In 2010, IWJ developed a new Campus Alliance Program a new and exciting way for those on campuses to connect with both IWJ and other campus groups in mutual collaboration, support, and education around issues of economic justice and concerns that affect low-wage workers. A Worker Justice Reader: Essential Writings on Religion and Labor was released in April and has since become a vital resource for seminaries, congregational study groups, social justice committees, labor unions, and beyond.

SUPPORTING WORKERS RIGHT TO ORGANIZE

ince its founding, Interfaith Worker Justice has called upon core religious tenets and traditions such as justice, dignity and respect, in support of workers rights to organize and earn a living wage. In 2010, IWJ supported a number of organizing campaigns. IWJ also coordinated the annual Labor in the Pulpits/on the Bimah/in the Minbar, which was participated in by hundreds of congregations and thousands of people of faith around the country.
